Weird creature, the human being. Have you ever felt that thing called *skin hunger*? You know, that deep, almost physical craving for touch and connection, even in a crowd or lying beside someone? Yeah, that lingering loneliness that just won’t quit, even when you’re surrounded.
You’re not alone in this. I’ve had so many women come to me, sharing that same ache—feeling unseen, unloved, not enough. It’s this void inside them, this constant fear that they’re not worthy of love. And trust me, that feeling? It haunts them. It creeps in during those quiet, lonely moments when everything else seems fine on the outside.
So let me ask you—how was your childhood? Did you get the love, the hugs, the warmth you needed? Or did you feel a little lost, like something essential was missing? Many of the women I’ve worked with grew up feeling invisible, and that wound followed them right into adulthood. They struggle with their relationships, their self-worth, and their belief that they even deserve love.
I often think of Marasmus—a disease that strikes babies who don’t get enough touch and care. It’s a devastating reminder that we’re wired for connection. Without love, we wither, just like those babies. And as adults? Our hearts can suffer just the same, even if we’ve gotten really good at hiding it.
So, have you felt that skin hunger? Is that need for connection so strong that it almost hurts? You see people every day—maybe walking down the street, at work, or even driving their shiny cars and wearing fancy clothes—but deep down, they’re longing for someone to truly *see* them. I’ve seen it in the eyes of the women who come to me, carrying that emptiness for years. Believing they’re not worthy of love, they’ll never be enough.
But here’s the thing—none of us are meant to do life alone. We’re here to connect, to love, and to be loved. A simple hug, a kind word, and a moment of genuine eye contact can fill that void. It doesn’t take much to change someone’s day, to remind them they’re not invisible.
So, I have to ask: when was the last time you really connected with someone? Maybe a stranger in the grocery store, your neighbor, or even someone in your family? We live in a world packed with people, yet many feel lonely. In fact, 36% of Americans report feeling severe loneliness, and it’s a global issue【23†source】【24†source】. Loneliness isn’t just an emotional struggle—it’s a crisis. But the good news? We can heal together, one connection at a time.
I’ve seen it happen. I’ve watched women blossom when they finally realize they *are* worthy of love and that they *do* belong. It all starts with something as small as a smile, a hug, a real conversation. What are you waiting for? Reach out. Connect with others. And if you’re still not sure, if you still feel like you’re not enough—call me. Reach out to me. I’m here to tell you you are worthy of love you haven’t even dreamed of yet. You’re a miracle, and trust me—love and affection feel so good. So go on, take that first step. And at any time, I am here for you.
